Bottomline

If you’re looking for a hedge trimmer that is easy to operate, lightweight, user-friendly, safe, and for residential use only, consider getting the Makita LXHU02Z.

But just like any battery-operated trimmer, the Makita LXHU02Z is not a substitute for the more powerful gas-powered trimmers. It may also not be the best choice for thick bushes, as one consumer has pointed out. It is quieter than other battery-operated trimmers, so you won’t need any hearing protection.
